The modern-day Thieves of San Lorenzo were formed in 1999, and are based in Hillsborough County, FL,
but we owe our signature red heart, inspiration and motto,
“We’ll Steal Your Heart”
to a brave group of women from the legendary
heartwarming story that took place centuries
ago on the Caribbean Isle of San Lorenzo.

The chronicles tell of a quiet and beautiful settlement
in tropical San Lorenzo that was repeatedly victimized
by pirates while the men were away at war.
A group of adventurous and courageous women decided to strike back and “steal” what was theirs, thus winning
the “hearts” of the San Lorenzo citizens.

On the Isle of San Lorenzo, where honor and friendship reign,
an adventurous group of women cherish
all they have gained protecting their tropical isle,
Lorenzo’s men head off to war, yet lose their
majestic treasures to the pirates who had come ashore.
Hence, Lorenzo’s bravest women strike back with
all their might. They reclaim Lorenzo’s riches and
steal the hearts of the isle with delight!
